The direct route from LHR to SFO and LAX takes the BA 744's directly between EDI and GLA as they are heading north. I've done the flights a good few times and looked down on this part of Scotland as we passed back over "home" having flown EDI to LHR earlier in the day.
Headed up east of EDI to just beyond John O Groats, then did u-turn back to GLA, delayed on ground at GLA and has just left at 2012 and heading North again.
Apparently an unlucky flight; there was another medical emergency upon landing at SFO causing further delays for deplaning and the outbound flight to London.
